Small business owners in eight counties impacted by the recent flooding of the St. Lawrence River and Lake Ontario are eligible for state grants to help cover costs due to physical damage or loss. Funding is available through the Empire State Development, and applications will be available in June. Initial information can be found on Governor Cuomo’s website.
Additionally, Emergency Response Mobile Command Centers and Department of Environmental Conservation offices are offering weekend hours to help disseminate information and be a resource to those communities facing flood damage. A list of the Emergency Response Mobile Command locations is available here.
NFIB will continue to provide information as it becomes available from the State.
